Nigeria

Ethiopia
Hanna Ingber Win visits maternal health programs administered by the UN Population Fund. She filed five dispatches.
Mexico
Samuel Loewenberg investigated the social, medical, economic and political factors behind the “health crises” affecting two impoverished Mexican states. He filed three stories.
Guinea-Bissau
Marco Vernaschi photographed the everyday realities of a region with critical health care access and delivery issues.
India
Hanna Ingber Win investigated maternal health disparities and efforts to improve the situation in India, particularly the province of Assam. She posted five stories.
